When Argentine is in question, Cordoba is believed to be a less dangerous city than Buenos Aires, but that does not exclude the possibility of crime on Cordoba’s streets.
Cordoba is a place of great cultural and architectural sites, and the authorities are emphasizing the constant development of this beautiful city.
However, the excessive amount of young people, which is followed by the lively nightlife and dangerous areas in the city, countless number of tourists in public places and the big market area in the outskirts of the city, are some of the places where the safety of this city can be affected.
The avenues of Centro and Nueva Córdoba are considered safe, while the area near Río Suquía, Avenida Circunvalación, Villa El Libertador, and Santa Isabel are believed to be unsafe and the riskiest districts.
The good thing is that there are no tourist attractions in these areas.
The kidnapping of tourists has sometimes occurred in Cordoba and the victims are often released after they give their jewelry or money to the kidnappers.
Tourists should also avoid being in those areas that are considered dangerous and pay attention to the suspicious behavior of people around them as in any other city.
Tourists do not need a visa to go to Argentine. The documentation that you need is your passport which has to be valid. However, for some nationalities, a visa is obligatory, and you can visit the site www.doyouneedvisa.com to see whether you need it or not.

The Argentine peso is the official currency in Argentine. You can pay by credit cards or cash, but you need to be cautious of the criminals and take care of your cards. Cash machines and ATMs are available throughout the whole country.

You can either come to Cordoba via flights that land on the International Airport Ingeniero Taravella, which is also famous as Pajas Blancas, 10 km away from the city center or you can use Buenos Aires-Ezeiza International Airport (EZE).
Travel Insurance
Travelers are always advised to get travel insurance in case there are some medical problems or the loss of private things.
As long as you are surrounded by people at all times and mind your belongings for pick-pockets you will be fine. Nightlife is best in Güemes, although also in Nueva Córdoba. Not sure why they mentioned Alta Córdoba as the second choice…
You need to update this information. Cordoba it’s very very risky right now, there are armed robberies going on very often, in all the neighbourhoods. Usually 2 guys on a motorcycle, don’t right against them, it’s very dangerous.
Stay safe my friends, Argentina is at it worst peak of safety right now.
“Me? Oh—” Did the man hesitate, Sandy wondered. It seemed to be so before he continued. “I’m Everdail.” “You did just what I wanted,” he said. “Let’s get the airplane in. Then we can talk.” Both chums read the box he thrust under their eyes. Arizona had its full share of murder and sudden death. But New Mexico had more than that. Spring passed on there, with warmth for the snow-wrapped mountains, and blistering heat for the dead plains, and her way was marked with lifeless and mutilated forms. GEORGE III. "Yes," answered Shorty. "And I was out late last night." LOST IN A MAZE OF RAILROAD TRAINS. Shorty shoved the bill into his hand, and rushed down in front of Billings. "Well, I for one am goin' through, and I'm goin' to take Pete and Sandy with me," said Shorty, in a loud, confident tone, to brace up the others. "I've always gone through every one o' them things I've struck yit, and this ain't no worse'n the others. But we ought to jump 'em at once, while they're shiverin' over the shelling' we give 'em. They must be shakin' up there yit like a dog on a January mornin'. Why don't we start, I wonder?" "I ask you if you're afraid of me and I get the beginnings of a self-analysis," Dr. Haenlingen said. She walked three steps to the desk and sat down behind it, her hands clasped on the surface, her eyes staring at the younger woman. "If I'd let you go on I suppose you could have given me a yard and a half of assorted psychiatric jargon, complete with suggestions for a change in your pattern." "Now, wait a minute," Dodd said. Norma had been brain-washed into some silly set of slogans: it was his job to break them down. "The clan can elect leaders—" The second piece of land had thriven better than the first. The hops were sturdy and promising beside the brook, and on the higher grounds the new pastures fattened. Reuben had decided to dig up a couple of his old grass meadows and prepare them for grain-sowing in the autumn. The soil was good, and it was only his father's want of enterprise which had kept so much of Odiam as mere grazing land. As for the cows, there was ample provision for them on the new pastures, which Boarzell would continue to yield, even if it refused oats—"But I'll have oats there some day, I reckon," said Reuben, "oats, and barley, and maybe wheat." Richard flushed with pleasure. After all he was not acquitting himself so badly with this fine lady. They talked together for a few more minutes, the boy trying to clip his speech like hers. He noticed how much shorter and crisper it was than his—while he said "d?an't," she could say "don't" twice. Something almost like a sob shook Reuben. Then, ashamed of his weakness, he raised his head, and saw that behind Boarzell the night had lifted, and a cowslip paleness was creeping into the sky. The great dark hump of the Moor showed clearly against it with its tuft of firs. A faint thrill stole through Reuben's tired limbs. Boarzell was always there to be loved and fought for, even if he had no heart or arm but his own. Gradually hope stirred as the dawn crept among the clouds. The wind came rustling and whiffling to him over the heather, bringing him the rich damp smell of the earth he loved. Reuben shook his head. HoME完整一级A免费看片

Argentina : Safety by City
Who wrote this? Why are they entitled to say this information is accurate? I’d like to know where this is information is obtained from.
Very nice city and very safe for woman. Lot’s of students around.
Not safe at night
My advice is to not walk around at night especially around the city center, there are criminals working at night and mugging is on the rise.
As long as you are surrounded by people at all times and mind your belongings for pick-pockets you will be fine. Nightlife is best in Güemes, although also in Nueva Córdoba. Not sure why they mentioned Alta Córdoba as the second choice…
This got worst during the past 3 years
You need to update this information. Cordoba it’s very very risky right now, there are armed robberies going on very often, in all the neighbourhoods. Usually 2 guys on a motorcycle, don’t right against them, it’s very dangerous.
Stay safe my friends, Argentina is at it worst peak of safety right now.
